23. Tape together the Dormer Roofs at the peak. Test them in
place on the Dormer.
Glue and tape the Dormer Roofs to the Dormer and Front Roof.
Builder's note: It's always hard getting down-
pressure on the back edge of the Dormer Roof.
Sometimes I tape weights to the Dormer Roofs;
this time I taped two Attic Dividers together and
hung them over the Dormer Roofs, then taped
them to the roof. After the Front edge of the
Dormer Roof was taped down, I looked under the
Dormer Roof's overhang, and could see how much
down pressure was needed to get contact at the top
of the Dormer Side. I pulled down on the outside
of the Attic Dividers with long flaps of tape on the
left and right evenly until the fit was good.
